Pamela’s Posh Picks: Chihuly at the Atlanta Botanical Garden
Feb 28 2014 ·0Just two more days until I jet off to Atlanta for this year’s Design Bloggers Conference! I am so looking forward to seeing my blogging buddies, hearing great speakers and seeing a little slice of Atlanta. While I probably won’t be visiting the Atlanta Botanical Garden on this trip, it’s definitely on my list for a future trip. In fact, I’d love to go if they ever bring back the Chihuly in the Garden exhibit that originally ran in 2004. During this exhibit, the majesty of Dale Chihuly’s glass was showcased with the inspiring plant collections of the Garden. Sounds amazing! Let’s take a peek at this week’s Posh Picks, featuring my favorite photos from Chihuly in the Garden in Atlanta…

Posh Pinterest Board of the Week: Flora (Encore)
Jun 24 2013 ·0When I returned home from my trip to Guatemala late last week, one of the things I was most happy to see was the bright colors that enliven our local landscape this time of year. It’s the rainy season in Guatemala which means everything was lush and green. Lots and lots of green with very few blooming flowers. I was anxious to see the containers on my deck and they did not disappoint, welcoming me with their happy blossoms.
That’s why this week I wanted to (once again) highlight my Flora Pinterest board. With gardens and containers in full, beautiful bloom, nothing makes me happier than lots and lots of color. Here are a few of my favorite pins…
Pansies
Apr 24 2013 ·1Recently I visited a nursery while on the hunt for flowers to fill my terrace planters. As it seems I am every year, I was struck by the color and variety of the pansies. Pansies truly are the star of Early Spring and their beauty and perseverance seem appropriate for today as sunshine returns to our skies and people return to Boylston Street in Boston…

The Smell of Spring
Apr 03 2013 ·2There is nothing like the smell of Spring ~ so fresh, so new, so…green. Fortunately, you can smell Spring any time of the year as soon as you step into Winston Flowers in Hingham (or any of their locations). Last week, just before Easter, I wandered into what felt like Paradise on a dreary, cold and gray day and into a garden of color and fragrance…
